Well the season is "officially" over with all PRO XCT and Kenda Cup's in the books. It was a good first year and I think things will only get better moving forward.

The Sho-Air/Specialized team did really well in 2009 and I'm proud of my guys and everyone who made it possible. We were there week in and week out and were always a factor at the races. We put at least one rider on the podium at every event we attended, so you can't argue with that!

I got a couple days in Vegas to touch base with some industry contacts at the Interbike Show and take a look at the new 2010 product. Its always cool to see who is pushing the limits of performance and function, and it looks again like Specialized is pushing that envelope! Plus putting faces to names is always nice in this day and age of e-mails, texting and cell phones, so I was to get to meet some key players face to face.

Other than that, we are already looking forward to 2010 in regards to the team and series. We have some really cool things lined up for next year, that I will fill you in on at a later time.

Until next time,

The Red Cowboy
